Straight for Mercier

Level 5 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Jason Mercier raised to 12,000 from the button, and Igor Kurganov called from the big blind to see the flop come down {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts}. Kurganov checked, and Mercier bet 13,000. Kurganov called.

The turn was the {8-Hearts}, and Kurganov checked. Mercier bet 32,000, and Kurganov called.

The river was the {9-Diamonds}, and Kurganov checked a third time. Mercier bet 62,000, and Kurganov thought for a little bit, then called.

Mercier tabled the {J-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a straight, and Kurganov mucked his hand.
